G - Memphis Grizzlies
Roster %
Eligibility
Availability
Ja Morant did everything he could to will the Grizzlies to victory in Tuesday’s 139-136 overtime loss to the 76ers, erupting for a season-high 40 points (16-of-22 FGs, 8-of-10 FTs) along with two rebounds, three assists, and two steals.
Fantasy Impact
Morant was unstoppable down the stretch, scoring 18 points in the fourth quarter to force the extra period and adding another six in overtime. While the result wasn't what Memphis hoped for, the efficiency was staggering. Health remains the primary caveat for Morant, but performances like this remind fantasy managers of his elite ceiling when he stays on the floor.
Ja Morant scored 21 points (8-16 FG, 3-5 3PT, 2-2 FT) with seven assists in Sunday's 116-112 loss to the Washington Wizards.
Fantasy Impact
Morant shot at least 50% from the field for a second straight game while matching a season-high with three three-pointers on Sunday. He will look to maintain that efficiency in Tuesday’s matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers.
Ja Morant looked sharp in his return to the court on Friday, posting a double-double with 17 points (6-of-11 FG, 5-of-6 FT) and 10 assists in a 125-104 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. He added four rebounds and two steals in just 25 minutes of action.
Fantasy Impact
After missing the previous four games with a left ankle sprain, Morant showed little rust, efficiently guiding the offense despite being on a minutes restriction. His production per minute was elite, and the lopsided score allowed the Grizzlies to keep his workload light in his first game back. Morant will look to ramp up his minutes when Memphis travels to Washington on Sunday.
Ja Morant (ankle) is questionable for the Grizzlies' game against the Bucks on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
Morant has not played since December 15th against the Clippers with an ankle injury. At least being questionable puts him in the realm of playing, but fantasy managers will need to monitor his status as game time approaches.
Ja Morant has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Jazz.
Fantasy Impact
Vince Williams (foot) has also been ruled out. Cam Spencer should be in line for more run in the Grizzlies back court.
